IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century Ago. These Files Contain the only Authentic History of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1878 Mr. Kenyon Cox will arrive in Anaheim from New York about the latter part of the month. He will make a permanent residence here, and at once assume an active part in the business of Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Company. The already extensive range of business done by that firm will be further augmented about the first of next month. They have leased from Mr. Tim Boege a tract of land adjoining the lumber yard, and about the date mentioned, they will go into the business of brick making. The preliminary preparations, such as getting wood, etc., are even now being made and Mr. Gurnsey, a professional brick maker, has been engaged to superintend the work. Verily, Messrs. Smith & Company's enterprise knoweth no bounds. Mr. Arthur Lewis arrived in Anaheim on Sunday, from Iowa, where he has been sojourning for the past year. Mrs. Lewis (nee Parker) is still in Iowa, but will probably return to Anaheim in the fall. We are indebted to Mrs. Schneider for two fine-looking and fine-tasting oranges, which were grown on her place in town. Each orange measured thirteen inches in circumference. Attempts to grow coffee in this vicinity have in several instances proved failures. The seed would sprout readily enough, but that is as far towards coffee cultivation as experimenters Mr. Arthur Lewis arrived in Anaheim on Sunday, from Iowa, where he has been sojourning for the past year.

Attempts to grow coffee in this vicinity have in several instances proved failures. The seed would sprout readily enough, but that is as far towards coffee cultivation as experimenters have as yet succeeded in getting. Mr. T. S. Grimshaw, the enterprising wagon maker of this place, is importing direct from the East a fine assortment of planks, axles, poles, rims, plow beams and handles, singletrees, bows, etc., which he will sell to the trade at San Francisco prices. His price list will be issued in a few days. We bespeak for this enterprise the cordial support it merits. The flouring mill about to be erected in Los Angeles by Messrs. Lankershim and Van Nuys will contain eight run of stones, with a grinding capacity of from 200 to 225 barrels per day of twelve hours, and of 400 barrels when run twenty-four hours per day. Mr. Schubert, asignee of Halberstadt & Company, announces an auction sale to take place on Saturday, May 4. The property to be sold consists of an eligible lot, a six-horse wagon and a marble mantlepiece. We beg to refresh the memory of our readers by directing their attention to the ball of the Magnolia Club, which will take place on the twenty-fifth. It is time the ladies were deciding what kind of toilet to appear in, and it is time for the gentlemen to make up their minds as to what particular lump of female loveliness he will favor with his company that evening. Mr. M. A. Mendelson, president of the Magnolia Club, desires us to announce that it is intended that the ball shall be a full dress affair. Some have been laboring under the impression that it was to be a calico ball. Hence this notice. The young friends of Misses Rosa and Frances Schmidt gave them a delightful surprise party on Thursday evening. The Misses Schmidt, we learn, will leave for Germany in about a week or so to be gone five years. Mr. W. B. Lamson, of Westminster, has raised and prepared for market a very superior quality of horseradish. He is putting it up in neat bottles and has had appropriate labels printed at The Gazette office.

The Young Americas of this city defeated a nine composed of Los Angeles gas men on the local grounds last Sunday by a score of 15 to 4.

Several times when three of the gas men were on bases and no outs, Stone retired the side in three strikeouts. He also struck out 18 men. The batting of the locals was heavy, as they knocked two pitchers out of the box. Next Saturday they will play the Orange team, and Sunday the Orangethorpe team, weather permitting.
